Renewable and Sustainable Energy
Pushing the Aerospace Envelope
•CU-Boulder is the only research institution in the world that
has designed and built NASA space instruments that traveled
to every planet in the solar system
•LASP-The Laboratory for the Atmospheric and Space Physicsat CU-Boulder is the most experienced university-based space
research in the world
•The CU-Boulder Department of Aerospace Engineering
Sciences is ranked as high as 2nd nationally by the National
Research Council (NRC)
Pushing the Aerospace Envelope
Colorado’s Aerospace Industry is soaring and CU-Boulder is large
part of that success
• LASP is one of the oldest ad most prestigious space
programs in the nation.
• Colorado has the nation’s 3rd largest aerospace economy.
• Colorado is home to more than 300 aerospace companies,
contractors, and suppliers..
• Colorado has nearly 177,000 people working in spacerelated jobs.
• No other public university in the world receives more NASA
funding. Between 2005 and 2009, CU-Boulder received
nearly $300 million in NASA grants and contracts to support
space research and education.
Generating Energy Solutions
Colorado has become a national hub for new energy
innovation. CU- Boulder is playing an important role in
advancing sustainable and renewable solutions
• According to the Colorado Cleantech Industry
Associaton, more than 300 clean technology companies
are based in Colorado - all working toward energy
creation that does not deplete natural resources.
• Cleantech jobs are on the rise. The governor’s office
reports that 17,000 renewable energy and energy
research jobs - the 4th largest concentration in the nation
- are powering Colorado’s new energy economy.
Generating Energy Solutions
• CU-Boulder and its partners–the National Renewable
Energy Laboratory (NREL), The Colorado School of
Mines, and Colorado State (CSU)- in 2008 founded the
Colorado Renewable Energy Collaboratory, a major
initiative to advance and develop renewable and
sustainable energy solutions
• CU-Boulder’s Renewable and Sustainable Energy
Institute (RASEI) has partnered with NREL to create an
interdisciplinary joint institute dedicated to solving the
world’s energy challenges through research, education,
and marketable technology.
Building a Biotechnology Economy
• The Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. reports
there are more than 15,090 bioscience workers at 520
companies in the nine-county Denver region.
• CU-Boulder’s Jennie Smoly Caruthers Biotechnology
Building will be home to the Colorado Initiative in
Molecular Biotechnology, or CIMB, led by Nobel
laureate and CU Distinguished Professor Tom Cech.

Economic Impact of CU-Boulder on
State of Colorado
• Our talented graduates move into the workforce.
• We provide graduate and professional
education, which are critical to business and
community leadership.
• Faculty research cultivates technology transfer
and business start-ups.
• Basic and applied research are the building
blocks of economic growth and sustainability.
Economic Impact of CU-Boulder on
State of Colorado
• Our presence is a key factor in the decision of
federal labs and corporations to locate in the
region.
• We add over $26 to the Colorado economy for
every state dollar we receive.
• Over 10,000 students from out-of-state and outof-country come here to spend their money
• In 2008-09, we generated $2.9 billion of
economic activity, with a payroll of 13,968 and a
total employment impact of 26,453 jobs.
Economic Impact: CU System
• CU System contributes $6.3 billion to the state’s
economy annually through its demands for
goods and services.
• CU System is Colorado’s fourth-largest
employer, with some 26,000 employees, and is
responsible for another 30,000 jobs related to
the university’s endeavors.
• For every $1 of unrestricted state general fund
support, CU System returns $40 to the Colorado
economy.
based on 2008-2009 data
Economic Impact of CU System
CU-Boulder, Anschutz Medical Campus, UC-Denver, and UCCS
• Students who study on all four CU System
campuses and their out-of-state guests spend
$707 million on meals, rent, entertainment,
clothing and utilities each year.
• Spending by CU System, the students, and their
visitors generates $300 million in local and state
taxes for the Colorado economy.
based on 2008-2009 data
Developing a Knowledge-Based Work
Force
• The CU System confers 60 percent of master’s degrees
and 54 percent of doctoral degrees
• The National Science Foundation ranks the CU System
eighth among public universities for federally financed
research and development in science and engineering.
Fostering Technology Revolutions
• Over the past five years, 51 startup companies
based on CU System technology and research
have emerged. In fiscal year 2008, CU System
tried for 10th nationally with other major
universities for its 11 startups.
• Since 2002, efforts to promote and market
technology created at the CU System have
generated $121.2 million in revenue.
Fostering Technology Revolutions
• A fourth of royalties from technology created at
the CU System have gone to discoverers; a
fourth to their CU labs; a fourth to the CU
Technology Transfer Office; and a fourth to the
discoverer’s campus.
• CU System inventions related to the biosciences
make up nearly two-thirds of the university’s
technology portfolio. The rest comprises
cleantech, 10 percent; physical sciences and
engineering; 13 percent; and software, 14
percent.
